And Lieberman wins the Bill Napoli Golden Coathanger Award:
In Connecticut, rape counseling activists say a recent study concludes that about 20% of state hospitals routinely refuse to offer emergency contraceptives to rape victims who are determined to be ovulating at the time they’re attacked. A proposed bill would require them to do so.
Lieberman said he believes hospitals that refuse to give contraceptives to rape victims for “principled reasons” shouldn’t be forced to do so. “In Connecticut, it shouldn’t take more than a short ride to get to another hospital,” he said.
What a creep. Whatever happened to “First, do no harm”? A doctor should be a doctor first and foremost, not an evangelist. Change parties already, Lieberman!
